Abstract

The increasing interest shown in rapid imaging by electronic commutation of multitransducers is linked to the inherent qualities of such equipment: immediate visualization of cross-sections, can be applied to most organs, straightforward use with instruments that are easily movable, no image distortion, etc... However with the early models developed, the quality of the image was poor compared to those obtained by manual scanning. This is due to the fact that in the multitransducer arrays, mechanical focusing cannot be made in the direction of the scanning.
